Heya Jim, Always love your writing and how you weave in prejudices, insecurities, feelings, musings and concepts...etc Amazing how some people seem to think that seeing things "their way" is considered "being reasonable". I find dealing with people with that self centred attitude extremely frustrating and tiresome... Keep the talent rolling. God bless n take care, Ray

Heya Jim, I trust that you're well... Perhaps Bob will let some things slip...but mebe he'll tell em all to back off and leave em well alone...who knows 😋 Anyway, thanks for writing up a storm full of surprises. Regards, Ray

The things our minds do us...and the tricks a mind can play when we're stressed. We've all been there one way or another, causing us to make choices that aren't necessarily rational. Not always easy to man up n fix em I'm enjoying your story with these short unusual chapters

Always a pleasure to read your art 👌

Well now, his earlier little fighting bout showed that he had spunk but not skill...definitely prepared to use all his resources, given that he was prepared to chew his way out of a bind... As for karate...he must be new at it or else he would have displayed a little more restraint and maturity. But then again, hormones...raging hormones, can elicit unusual behaviour Perhaps they both need a bit of church...😁

Chapter 78 No Such Thing As Bad Publicity
Magicstate commented on Dodger's story chapter in Chapter 78 No Such Thing As Bad Publicity
I have missed you through this story. I hope that all is well with you. Whilst Robbie still has to deal with a lot of issues at least he has a few options and the situation has revealed somewhat of a support system. And he has the advantage of meeting on neutral ground, in a manner. After all, the comfort of home was removed by Don's reaction. -
So I "loved" this chapter, what can I say...I'm an extremist
-
Love your writing And love the fact that you are back on form I trust that you are well and continue to be blessed 👌

So a man walks into a clock shop...whips out his doodat and slaps it onto the counter ...the young man in attendance is understandably shocked and shaken but manages, "excuse me sir, but this is a clock shop!" "Why yes young man, I know " says the chap "and I am in the right shop, cos I want a pair of hands and a face on this pronto..." Very interesting time piece, I mean piece of writing...nicely done And thanks for the windup

A rather interesting turn of events. I think Daniel will reconcile...perhaps by communicating with Nathan. Alex is cool...cos he at least has someone who know his truth that he can communicate with. Odd bedfellows so to speak. When one has to run and hide, the familiar doesn't suffice, because it is obvious. But the "known" on the other hand can be a safe refuge...

Chapter 73 Brothers in Arms
Magicstate commented on Dodger's story chapter in Chapter 73 Brothers in Arms
Reason isn't reason when one is being unreasonable, then reason cannot prevail. Sometimes people see it as a personal affront, or in Daniel's case, perhaps betrayal. It is unfortunate that coming out, unlike being hetero, seems to involve everyone and everyone has to deal with it in their own way - or not...it's a process they have to go through as well. Some deal with it and others don't. -
Well now, I was never "confused" growing up. I was hetero, I could appreciate good looking guys as well as girls, but was never inclined to be anything other than hetero. Then one day I met Christo and we had an instant mutual attraction that neither of us knew what to do with. After a long while we explored, and enjoyed, it...but mutually ended it cos we really didn't know what to do or how to proceed...we lost touch. I have since identified as bi-sexual. I love the person whether they happen to be male or female. I do wish that we knew more tho, things may have been very different. I appreciate Charlie's candid approach and his courage...

Phew, Robbie has become bearable again. Amazing how much tension subconscious stress can create...and how different it can be when that stress is dealt with and relieved. Facing issues whether the result is positive or negative at least provides an outcome that one can then begin to live with or deal deal with, as the case may be...

Rock and a Hard Place Chapter 1
Magicstate commented on Dodger's story chapter in Rock and a Hard Place Chapter 1
I like Charlie and I think that perhaps he's trying to see if Roger will admit his attraction to him...he's pushing his friendship boundaries with him...? -
Woohoo...I think. How are they gonna deal with the "public" if they're stumped by family at dinner...hmmm

Heya Ricky, A haiku attempt: love untouchable I reach for the stars Your beauty touches my heart Drifting, worlds apart Be blessed man

Mebe there will be a realisation that you can't just leave one "river" for another, cos everything is a flow, smooth, rough, change of direction, change of scene. The only choices in the flow of the river of life is whether you directly influence it or not...cos it's always gonna flow. Someone once said: not making a choice, is in fact a choice. And If you don't choose, the choices will be made for you... One can never leave your "river" or "flow" behind...cos any move is like an unseen vortex...just cos you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there and that it doesn't have some kind of influence, drag or pull...cause and effect... Enjoying your writing ;-)

Week Seventeen Sunday, December 28, 2014: Fruit Fly
Magicstate commented on skinnydragon's story chapter in Week Seventeen Sunday, December 28, 2014: Fruit Fly
I have enjoyed this story tremendously. And I can understand that it's from a teenager's point of view. I don't think that his family or friends abandoned him...it's from his perspective, which is warped by stress and irrational thought and actions. Suicide is not rational and is often well hidden from loved ones, friends and colleagues - else more people would be stopped, saved, rescued etc. I think that this story is somewhat perfect even with it's imperfections. Thank you for sharing your talent and exposing yourself to critics and admirers alike...I wish you well n hope that you hone your talent from strength to strength ;-) -
Thanks for that. Yeah loss is a bitch n it's either made better or worse by those around you. I'm sorry for your loss. I simply isolated myself from that...my simple coping mechanism. I suppose the trick is to guard your heart n not to close it off...

For now this is a short, very short, collection of verse.

A flower plucked up, to be enjoyed for but a moment. Released to the heavens, to shine as a star. Long gone…. twinkling mischievously. A reminder of memories, and what the future holds.
